Peace Day

We recently celebrated "Peace Day" at Annunciation. This annual tradition is a favorite among students and staff, as it gives the school community a chance to reflect on peacemakers around the world, and ways that we ourselves can promote peace.

This year's theme is "Be An Instrument Of Peace". On Peace Day, students learned about a peacemaker, and created presentations to show that peacemaker to the school. Each class also read the book "Sadako and the Paper Cranes", and created paper cranes to send to Japan as a symbol of peace around the world. 

We are thankful for Ms. Sheila Karpan and the Peace Day committee for all the work they did to make Peace Day a success. We are proud of our "peaceful" community and are blessed to have students who know what it means to be a peacemaker in the world.
